"They went out of their way to do this," Ford told the Toronto Sun. "Did you arrest me because I am a Bronco's fan?"

Ford was crossing the street with former staffer David Price in British Columbia around 8:45 p.m. when they were stopped by an officer who issued them both tickets.

"It was for $109 for disobeying a pedestrian sign," Ford told The Toronto Sun. "I said 'you have got to be kidding.' I said 'are you guys serious?'"

The Sun reports Ford is in Vancouver this weekend to attend a memorial service for his friend and former staffer David Price’s mother. When the men were stopped, a local resident said people began to crowd around the mayor, asking him to pose in pictures, which reportedly "embarrassed" Ford.
